Ditrichophora (Ephydridae) - right

don?t trust in fauna europaea! it is so "UNupdated"! :P it is out-of-date!
And it has some spelling errors as well. It can be seen as a guide no more. Don?t trust it. :P

i think if Tony didn't tell more about the species, no one would tell more because he is expert on Ephydridae and Tethinidae flies.

The more you know, the more you know how little you know! :p
I'm not sure that this is Ditrichophora - I think so - but I am sometimes wrong! :|
